THE TEMPERANCE CAMpAIGx

DcCh cuRa2cu Ny tIc NItuu OFlSlOil VI
the Sons OF Temperance OF this State to
dclivc: number OF temperance lectures
In our principal cities and towns. Mr..
G. NJ. Douglas, Past Grand Worthy Pa
trarcll OF the State, accompanies this
eminent lecturer for the purpose OF Or
ganizipg new divisions and putting new
life into the order. This might well be
termed the beginning OF an aggressive
fight for prohibition, which we believe
will sweep the State from east to west
aud north to south. The people OF the
State are ripe for 1t. All that is needed
arc leaders with courage to make the
fight. The Sons OF Temperance Is not a
large body, but it has on It's list some OF
~ faithful men rs ever drew breath on
Carolinn's soil and its members are in
crcasing. The Christian people wish
them God-sprcd In their efforts TO pro-
tcct the boys, young men, and fathers
from the evil Influences attending tho
sale Of viii ,kcy, and from the slavery
following the use OF II to persons, and
the curse TO the homes and families OF
our country. This order takes the init
ntivr. The times demand reform in
temperance, church and State. The
lives Of some 0i the most cutcrpIising
men that ever lived In Newbcrry arc
crying from their graves to arrest this
evil The empty chairs ut the llrcsides
IN many homes demand that something
bc done. The voices OF many mothers
who cIy "whcrc Is my wandering boy
tonight ~ are longing for II. Hungry
md neglected children are pitifuly beg
glug "l'nthcr to come home" Young
wives wait patiently many weary hours
to meet their husbands who have spent
their evenings ut the bar and billiard
rooms. The State needs sober men,
merchants want sober clerks, railroads
II steady hand on the throttle valve, and
the church men OF sOhricty nnd honor.
We fear that none Of us realize the
measure "f our individual responsibility
Tor the suffering around ny. We too
often console ourselves with the thought
that wo are not to hlnmr, and therefore
not responsible because We do not sell
